monument in the cemetery at Frankfort restored to its original condition The sculptor who is to do the work is in Frankfort looking at pictures of Boone and studying the his I tory of scenes and incidents in 4 the life of the Kentucky pioneer It will be several months before the work is finished and the monument restored but when I the sculptor gets through it is expected that the Boone monument will be as it was many years ago The Legislature of 1906 appropriated 2000 for the restoration i i of the monument but this has never been used thisI On each side of the monument was depicted in marble an act in i the life of Boone One side showed the pioneer killing an Indian 1 and another showed him and a bear fighting A third side depicted Boones wife milking a cow while the fourth side i showed him sitting under his own vine and fig tree All these have been ruined by the souvenir collector and the monument is isj now stripped of almost everYthing that would show to whom it was erected rit erectedClock I Clock Ticks Inside Fish II I Recently George Harris late Assistant Warfmaster caught a catfish that weighed only forty five pounds but upon dressing it found a clock in its maw says the Carrollton News Of course the catfishs mouth was large enough to have swallowed the clock but why it should have kept running as it was ticking when the fish was caught is beyond conception as we learn that the timepiece was dropped over boardfrom the steamer Helen Gould by one of Purser Shirley I Bradley cabin boys three days previous The only explanation I we can give is that watering beg in one of the best conduetors I of electricity known that the fish supplied the electricity from its body and conducted by the i cur I rent formed by the breathing oft the water made
